Chipguy,

We'll see. You may be right for as far as Vista is concerned. You may be right too in thinking we'll find any Merom systems on the shelf before Vista is released. Then again at this moment we don't know that for sure. This is in line with my statement that I "wouldn't be surprised" to see Merom systems for sale approximately at the time Vista is available for the reason of inter-company politics. Do you know what MS did or did not agree to specifically at the time they told Intel they'd only do one 64b version for Intel either for Itanium or for Yamhill? I'm not saying I think any special agreement was made at that time or any other time; I am saying it can't be ruled out.

Maybe you pride youself in being a good at politics, but the tone in some of your posts makes me doubt that seriously. In politics the most insane agreements are not that uncommon at all.

Regards,

Rink
